How to apply for a Chevening Scholarship?
To apply for these scholarships, those interested must meet a set of requirements, which are the following:
- Be a citizen of a country or territory that meets Chevening requirements.
- Return to the country of which you are a citizen for at least two years after the end of the scholarship.
- You have completed all components of your undergraduate degree enabling you to enroll on a postgraduate program at a UK university by the time of application.
- You must have at least two years (equivalent to 2,800 hours) of work experience.
- I applied to three different UK universities and received an unconditional offer from one of them before the deadline specified in the application calendar.
It is important that applicants fully meet these requirements, as Chevening’s website lists as a common error in applications that candidates do not have 2,800 hours of work experience.You may be interested in: If you want to study abroad, these ICETEX scholarships may interest you)
What type of master’s degree can be obtained with a Chevening scholarship? The UK Government does not limit the options of Masters courses that apply to the scholarship, but does give certain guidelines that those interested should consider.
First, they must apply for three different master’s degrees as part of the scholarship application process. These could be three Master’s degrees at the same university, or similar Master’s degrees at three different universities. This second option is the one recommended by the scholarship, because it gives the student more opportunities for admission, and gives the judging panel a better idea of the professional interests of the aforementioned student.
“Once you have submitted your application, you will not be able to change your chosen courses unless you are given permission to do so at the interview stage. You will have to apply separately for your chosen courses directly through the university. Apply as soon as possible to ensure you get a place,” the scholarships page recommends Scholarship.
Master’s degrees must also be full-time, taught entirely in the UK, and begin their academic year in September or October. Following application, a small group of students will be selected for interviews in approximately February 2024. Fellows will be announced starting June 2024.
